What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven Project Manager and Scrum Master with over nine years of multifaceted experience leading Agile product delivery, business analysis, and scrum leadership across fintech, insurance, and lending domains.
I have led cross-functional teams to deliver complex technical solutions including Guidewire PolicyCenter integrations, retail POS modules, and loan origination system enhancements, driving measurable improvements such as a 32% increase in quote-to-bind conversion and a 25% lift in merchant retention.
My strengths include backlog and roadmap management, stakeholder alignment, compliance-driven deliveries (GDPR, HIPAA, SOX, Dodd-Frank, ECOA), and implementing metrics-driven Agile practices that improved story completion and reduced manual validation effort.
I hold PMP, CSM, and SAFe certifications and I focus on mentoring teams, improving processes, and delivering customer-centered products that reduce turnaround times, lower operational incidents, and increase self-service adoption.
